SOY WAX BENEFITS AND DIFFERENCE WITH PARAFFIN WAX
1. Non-toxic emissions:
Did you know most candles sold on the market contain paraffin, derived from petroleum ?
When burned, it can release harmful toxins such as benzene (promotes the growth of cancer) and toluene into the air. Also, its production involves the use of fossil fuels.
In comparison, soy wax is made from soybeans, a natural and renewable resource. It doesn’t emit the same level of toxins, soot and pollutants as paraffin, contributing to a healthier indoor air quality.
2. Environmentally friendly:
Paraffin wax is a byproduct of petroleum refining, its production involves the use of fossil fuel. Soy wax is a vegetable wax, it is biodegradable and its production has a lower environmental impact. Choosing soy wax over paraffin supports a more sustainable and eco-friendly candle industry.
3. Longer Lasting:
Soy wax has a lower melting point : it burns at a cooler temperature and lasts longer than traditional candles. The slower burn rate also allows the fragrance to be re leased gradually, enhancing the overall candle experience!
